Meld Studio

SAMMI interacts with Meld Studio through its WebChannel API, enabling remote control of scenes, layers, tracks and more — and listening to Meld events to trigger buttons in SAMMI.

Connect SAMMI to Meld Studio #

1. In SAMMI, click Connections in the bottom menu and select Meld Studio.

   

2. The Meld Connection window opens. Click Connect to Meld — SAMMI will connect to Meld Studio running on the same machine.

   

The default settings are:

• IP: 127.0.0.1
• Port: 13376 (Meld’s default WebChannel port)

Leave these untouched unless Meld Studio is running on a different machine or you have changed the WebChannel port in Meld.

3. Once connected, the Status indicator turns green and the Session Status section shows your current scene, streaming/recording state, and scene/layer/track counts.

4. Check Auto Connect if you want SAMMI to connect to Meld Studio automatically every time it starts.

Control Meld Studio from SAMMI #

You can control Meld Studio using Meld Commands. Here is a practical example — a Swap Scene button that listens for a Twitch chat command like !swapscene Gaming and switches to the named scene in Meld:

1. Set up the Trigger

Open the button’s Triggers and add a Twitch Chat Message trigger. Set the message to !swapscene * — the * acts as a wildcard that captures the scene name typed in chat.

2. Add the Commands

In the button’s Command Editor, add:

• Pull Wildcard — saves the first wildcard value (*) as sceneName
• Meld: Show Scene — uses /$sceneName$/ as the scene name to switch to

When a moderator (or you) types !swapscene Gaming in chat, SAMMI pulls Gaming from the wildcard and tells Meld Studio to switch to that scene immediately.
